Cyanobacterial evolution during the Precambrian
Life on Earth has existed for at least 3.5 billion years. Yet, relatively little is known of its evolution during the first two billion years, due to the scarceness and generally poor preservation of fossilized biological material. Cyanobacteria, formerly known as blue green algae were among the first crown Eubacteria to evolve and for more than 2.5 billion years they have strongly influenced E...
متن کاملIn- ̄ight annihilation during positron channeling
Energetic positrons propagating along low index directions in a crystal interact strongly with the periodic array of atoms via a process known as channeling. The trajectories of such channeled positrons can be manipulated to sample dierent spatial regions in the crystal. Here we report the ®rst observations of channeling eects on in̄ight annihilation radiation from positrons traversing a thin ...
متن کاملOptimizing cyanobacterial product synthesis: Meeting the challenges
The synthesis of renewable bioproducts using photosynthetic microorganisms holds great promise. Sustainable industrial applications, however, are still scarce and the true limits of phototrophic production remain unknown. One of the limitations of further progress is our insufficient understanding of the quantitative changes in photoautotrophic metabolism that occur during growth in dynamic env...
متن کاملChanneling by Proximity: The Catalytic Advantages of Active Site Colocalization Using Brownian Dynamics
Nature often colocalizes successive steps in a metabolic pathway. Such organization is predicted to increase the effective concentration of pathway intermediates near their recipient active sites and to enhance catalytic efficiency. Here, the pathway of a two-step reaction is modeled using a simple spherical approximation for the enzymes and substrate particles. Brownian dynamics are used to si...
متن کاملRadical mechanism of cyanophage phycoerythrobilin synthase (PebS).
PEB (phycoerythrobilin) is a pink-coloured open-chain tetrapyrrole molecule found in the cyanobacterial light-harvesting phycobilisome. Within the phycobilisome, PEB is covalently bound via thioether bonds to conserved cysteine residues of the phycobiliprotein subunits. In cyanobacteria, biosynthesis of PEB proceeds via two subsequent two-electron reductions catalysed by the FDBRs (ferredoxin-d...
